Project Management for Diagnostic Imaging Equipment: What can your provider do for you?

As pioneers in providing Diagnostic Imaging Equipment, we are often asked this when we suggest project management for the systems procured from us. Why? Wouldn’t it be cheaper to buy equipment from an individual or another site and take it as it comes, rather than from company?

It may sometimes be less expensive up front to do that, but what happens when there is a problem in site planning or problem with the equipment? Remember, this equipment needs accurate and detailed planning and it has to be precise in performance, and quality-assured as it deals with health. There is no room for error.

An equipment provider who offers complete project management, as we do, can ensure all of that, and more. If you’re still wondering why you need project management, here are the value-adds:

Site planning for Diagnostic Radiology Equipment is a specialized area and requires a clear understanding of the clinical needs of the healthcare facility.

Site planning specialists thoroughly review and evaluate all aspects like facility design, better workflow, safety, rigging path, architectural needs and efficient use of space etc. during initial site qualification.
